Imagine the uproar on here if we had signed Waerea-Hargreaves (36), Michael McIlorum (37) and Danny Richardson.
Perhaps but I think we are pretty tolerant on here nowadays. There hasn't been much "uproar" over the underwhelming signings we did actually make for 2025. Just a collective "meh". Personally, I'd have Waerea-Hargreaves over Zane Musgrove and Danny Richardson over Leyland and I think Tom Davies and Rhyse Martin were good signings, obviously unfortunate with the latter's injury. I suspect Hull KR will end the regular season above us in the league and, as such, the proof of the pudding would be in the eating. I agree Davies and Martin were decent signings; Martin would have improved our team both in goalkicking and resilience in the backrow. Leyland is a far better player than Richardson. If he is hounded out from us (very possible), he will go on to have a successful career with whichever club improves his defensive technique and protects him a bit better.

| Pardon me if I'm on the wrong thread, but the Cats & Leeds game was absolutely dire.

So do you think that my point saying Hull KR have recruited well is reasonable? I hope you are right on Leyland.

So do you think that my point saying Hull KR have recruited well is reasonable? I hope you are right on Leyland. Any opinion is reasonable, it's just a rugby forum isn't it. My opinion is that I think 37-year-old McIlorum is a downgrade on Matt Parcell, and Waerea-Hargreaves seems to give them less than they had before (Storton / George King). I think Davies is a good replacement for Hall on the wing; that's probably like for like in terms of quality. So while I think they will be in contention for the top places again, I don't think they have improved.

| Fair enough. Just you jumped on that post where I had suggested they recruited well as if you disagreed.
Following a similar analysis do you think we have improved with our 2025 recruitment?

| Can't see any mention of cup games on TV this weekend, that's dreadful from the BBC. Is it going to be red button nonsense? If so, who are they showing? I'd have thought Stains and Leeds on Friday night at least?
